I love Sleek palettes! If only shopping wasnt so expensive to the US :(
^ I've heard that said often! Wonder how much it is (goes off to check!), I do know that the e/s palettes are quite weighty (about 240g). Ok, so I see that it is $13.50 worldwide...honestly, I don't think it is that bad, companies posting from the US to Europe usually charge much much more and then we get hit with customs & handling fees on top. At least it's flat rate! Though I can see that it would be annoying if you just want one thing. Best thing to do is club together with another buyer and order a few things to justify the cost, or failing that get a CP from someone.
Yeah, $13.50 is a lot if you want only one thing. If you buy a lot of items, then it works out.
I wish they were available IN STORE in the US. Love the products!
Indeed. Come on, Sleek; line up a US distributor! Please! :poke:

The first time I ordered from Sleek the shipping was $13.50 but as of last week when I ordered the blush trios it was only $10. Hopefully its a change for the better.

I just recently got my first Sleek products from Vanitypalace on Ebay. Two seperate smooth transactions. Bad Girl e/s palette and Contour/Highlight Kit. I really, really, like them. I'll try a blush next.

I love the eyeshadow palettes. I do think they can be a bit powdery though, but who cares for the price?!
And I adore the contour and highlight kit. It's a lovely natural contour, but the highligher is perfect! It's shimmery, but not glittery and nothing like a MAC MSF which I hate because of its chunkiness. It looks so natural on the skin.

Unfortunately I haven't tried this amazing brand yet but I'm buying some eyeshadow palette and bronzers really soon. I'm pretty sure I will love them. I see Sam and Nick of pixiwoo use the eyeshadow palette a lot and I really love the pigmentation

Hmm.. not sure what you mean, mine don't smell at all and I have all of them:) Gorgeous pigment and payoff, better than MAC and at a fraction of the price.. maybe you got some dodgy ones..

I got the Matte Darks palette in this past week. A little FYI, Sleek won't sell either of the Mattes palettes to the US, for the same reason they won't sell the Acid palette: one of the ingredients has FDA restrictions. (My guess is it's the green pigment they use in the Acid and Matte Brights palette. I looked it up and found out it has restriction for use in cosmetics sold in the US.) So I found it on eBay. (Another good seller is 0voguendiva0, just in case vanitypalace doesn't have something you're looking for.) It is so beautiful. I love the colours. However! I think they may've reformulated their shadows a bit, along with changing the way they press them. Noir is in this palette, but it's not as dark as in my Bad Girl palette, wherein it's about as black as black can be. The pigmentation is still there, though; it's just different. (I'll have to do a side-by-side swatch for you guys.) EDIT (June 9): Here's the side-by-side. Noir from Ultra Mattes Darks is on the left; Noir from Bad Girl on the right.

i absolutely love sleek - i actually like all their products more than the eyeshadows funnily enough, lol

the face contour kit and blushes being my fav!

i just bought the new collection, eyeshadow pallettes and the highlighting concealer pen today to review :)

my eyes are on the pout polishes next - similar to the OCC lip tars which here in UK are a nightmare to get your hands on :/

Yes you are right. They are not pricey but still have an amazing quality. Their BLUSHES are the BEST! I have not yet gotten such pigmented, gorgeous colours of blushes in any other drugstore brand.

I love Sleek! I own all the blushes and pout polishes, almost every eyeshadow palette and a ton of pigments, pout paints and lipsticks. L.O.V.E. :love: Def one of my fave drugstore brands!
